[QF-2] Can't create _seo_subscriptions

Site Admin Joined: Jun 04, 2004 Posts: 6432

Problem:
MySQL Error # 4 at line 113 in file installSQL.php ==> Too big column length for column 'type' (max = 255). Use BLOB instead

Error in rn_core.sql at line 708:
CREATE TABLE `nuke_seo_subscriptions` ( `sid` int(6) NOT NULL auto_increment, `type` varchar(256) NOT NULL, `name` varchar(60) NOT NULL, `tagline` varchar(60) NOT NULL, `image` varchar(256) NOT NULL, `icon` varchar(256) NOT NULL, `url` varchar(256) NOT NULL, `active` int(1) NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY (`sid`)) TYPE=MyISAM;

Solution:
Edit rn_core.sql and replace all instances of varchar(256) with varchar(255)

Thanks kguske. I could have sworn that we had changed all of these to 100 early on in 2.3.0 work. Bummer.

It's not the same problem. It may be something limited in that particular installation / configuration of MySQL. This is the first time I've seen this, and nukeFEED has been in use for a long time.

Yeah, just saw the originating thread. Sad

Oh well, it happens.
